Intake Sensor CircuitAJS00157
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Intake Sensor
The intake sensor is located on the heater & cooling unit. It converts
temperature of air after it passes through the evaporator into a resis-
tance value which is then input to the unified meter and A/C amp.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR INTAKE SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Intake sensor circuit is open or shorted. (24 or −24 is
indicated on unified meter and A/C amp. as a result of performing
Self-diagnosis STEP-2.)
1. CHECK VOLTAGE BETWEEN INTAKE SENSOR AND GROUND
1. Disconnect intake sensor connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between intake sensor harness connector M254
terminal 2 (R) and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> GO TO 4.
2. CHECK CIRCUIT CONTINUITY BETWEEN INTAKE SENSOR AND UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP.
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect unified meter and A/C amp. connector.
3. Check continuity between intake sensor harness connector
M254 terminal 1 (W) and unified meter and A/C amp. harness
connector M57 terminal 49 (W/G).
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair harness or connector.

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect unified meter and A/C amp. connector.
3. Check continuity between intake sensor harness connector
M254 terminal 2 (R) and unified meter and A/C amp. harness
connector M57 terminal 41 (P).
4. Check continuity between intake sensor harness connector
M254 terminal 2 (R) and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> 1. Replace unified meter and A/C amp.
2. Go to self-diagnosis AT C - 5 4 , "
FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE" and perform self-
diagnosis STEP-2. Confirm that code No. 20 is displayed.
NG >> Repair harness or connector.
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Intake Sensor
After disconnecting intake sensor connector M254, measure resis-
tance between terminals 1 and 2 at sensor side, using the table
below.
If NG, replace intake sensor.2 – 41 : Continuity should exist.
2 – Ground : Continuity should not exist.

Removal and InstallationAJS0015D
REMOVAL
1. Set the temperature at 18°C (60°F), and then disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Use a refrigerant collecting equipment (for HFC-134a) to discharge refrigerant.
3. Remove the mounting bolt, and then remove the low-pressure pipe 2 and high-pressure pipe 3. Refer to
ATC-151, "
Removal and Installation of Low-pressure Pipe 2 and High-pressure Pipe 3" .
CAUTION:
Seal connection opening of piping with a cap or vinyl tape to avoid exposure to atmosphere.
4. Slide the evaporator to passenger side, and then remove the
intake sensor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Replace O-rings for A/C piping with new ones. Before installing, apply compressor oil to them.
Connection point for female-side piping is thin. So, when inserting male-side piping, take care not
to deform female-side piping. Slowly insert in axial direction.
Insert one-touch joint connection point securely until it clicks.
After piping has been connected, pull male-side piping by hand to make sure piping does not
come off.
When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.
